## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the % of moly in this product ???**
A: LOCTITE LB 8012 known as Moly Paste is a minimum of 60% Molybdenum disulphide  http://www1.mscdirect.com/.../MSDS0.../00270256-20170512.PDF

**Q: Can i use this on the hub and spline gear of my shaft driven 82 suzuki gs1100 gl?**
A: This is an assembly paste to use on plane bearings to avoid scuffing on initial cranking and start up of a freshly rebuilt engine. Splines require an extreme pressure lubricant that stays in place yet remains slippery throughout a wide temperature range. The most frequently recommended, and what I have used for many years is available from Amazon - look for Molykote BR2 Plus. A 14 oz tube will last you a lifetime.

**Q: Why can't they say what % of Moly is in this stuff !!!!!**
A: Looking at the tech and safety data sheet(s) at liqui-moly.de it looks like this is 33% MoS2, 6% graphite, and 1-5% WS2 (tungsten disulfide) along with an unpublished % of calcium fluoride in a mineral oil + acetone carrier. All-in-all a very robust mix of solid lubricants I'd say!

**Q: is it black?**
A: Yes
